As patients move throughout the open, communal environment of behavioral health units, insight into each patient’s location is important for both safety and quality of care.
Leveraging the power of Momentum’s RTLS In Motion, full visibility into the location of patients is provided across the department and the facility. Data is collected passively to a measure opportunities for workflow improvements for better patient care experiences.
Our RTLS In Motion solution monitors the location of patients, with immediate alerting when wandering events occur. With our integration to access control doors, we are able to prevent exit-seeking behaviors by engaging magnetic locks and electric strikes to prevent elopement. If an at-risk patient is sensed in an elevator car, the elevator will be disabled and unable to leave the floor.
Use Momentum’s RTLS In Motion to promote patient safety, while still maintaining freedom of movement to your relevant patient populations.
Our solution provides visibility into patient and staff workflows by leveraging the RTLS sensing technology. This visibility gives hospitals the ability to improve patient flow, increase access, and create better staff and patient experiences.
The ability to quickly locate medical equipment improves efficiency. Use Momentum RTLS In Motion to access the location of your equipment from the nurses’ station computers or via our mobile applications to your wireless device.
With accurate RTLS data showing the utilization of assets across your facility, you can right-size and reallocate inventory. Re-distribute assets to departments where they are needed, make optimal purchase/lease decisions, and ensure that items available in storage closets are visible to staff when they are needed.
Lack of visibility into the current inventory levels of PAR-monitored locations causes day-to-day tasks like replenishing equipment to be reactive and inefficient for supply chain staff. Use RTLS In Motion to streamline operations by ensuring current PAR tracked equipment is within desired ranges. Alert staff when minimum asset levels are triggered for specific departments, so equipment can be retrieved and available when it is needed by your patients.
Just as patient safety is a top priority, clinical staff safety and protection are also at the forefront of hospitals’ concerns. A cost-effective panic alert system that prevents threats from escalating into a dangerous situation is becoming an essential tool with an increased risk of work-related aggravated incidents.
Our wireless staff duress system uses staff badges equipped with wireless call functionality that discreetly summon help via the RTLS network. Suppose a staff member needs assistance or is faced with a threatening situation. In that case, the individual can simply press the button on their staff badge to request help, sending an alert message to responding staff with the precise location of the request.
Our RTLS temperature tags collect temperature, humidity and CO2 readings. Readings and data are automatically collected for each appliance or space being monitored. Staff are notified of any abnormalities in readings so corrective action can be taken immediately. All information is logged to aid in compliance audits.
Quickly access reports for all environmentally monitored areas and devices – and simplify audit preparations. The accurate, objective data allows you to effectively evaluate your processes, measure against policy, and meet the requirements of regulatory boards.
Hand hygiene involves disinfecting hands with either alcohol or soap and water to prevent the spread of infectious disease. Healthcare facilities are at high risk for spreading infections and since the role of hand hygiene in reducing unnecessary infections was discovered, health organizations have attempted to incorporate a protocol to improve hand-washing standards.
The issue of compliance comes down to training, motivating and reinforcing appropriate behaviors. Hospitals and medical centers must implement guidelines for hand hygiene systems and find a way to monitor and increase compliance.
Momentum’s RTLS In Motion HHC solution is implemented with room-level accuracy. Once the patient space is define, our system monitors for healthcare staff entering and exiting the room. Upon entering and immediately before exiting, the system will be expecting the hand hygiene sensor to be activated, signalling a hand hygiene event. The hand hygiene opportunity and adherence event are then recorded in the software, along with the staff members name and staff role. If enabled, a gentle reminder from the staff member’s RTLS-enabled badge will occur when a hand hygiene opportunity is missed to help break the chain of infection.
